problem with vista activation

[num1gever]

i'm not sure that's the place for it but if not, move it please.
i have dual boot of vista&windows 7 on the same HDD but in different partitions.
i've tries to install SP2 for vista and after reseting vista became not activated. so i did a system restore and i have now vista SP1 but also not activated.
i had activate vista once before i installed windows 7, but now when i try to activate vista again it seems that something is going wrong in the bcd.
i cant boot into either vista nor windows 7.
when i look at the bcdedit in the repair of vista, i see that the device partition and osdevice partition exchanged. the vista partition is now 7 and the opposite.
i fixed it but the vista is still not activated. i've tried many vista activators..

If you are not able to get to the desktop, then try THIS

Good luck. Please post your results

Re: Vista activation "Buy new product key" problem

What sort of problem is it that you are having? If you are activating by phone and the first part fails, hold on to the line until you get put through to an activation operator who should be able to assist you. S/he should also be able to guide you through this buy new product key if this applies to you.

I believe that your computer is in "Reduced Functionality Mode".

Please try the following Article: How to Get Out of Reduced Functionality Mode in Vista
